This place in Tooting, London used to be the place to go for fried chicken. Now the I don't know what it's meant to be. Different signage. Chicken tastes different. Chips different. I don't know what to make of it. Dirty chicken and chips is no more. It just tastes of nothing. It used to have a distinctive taste even the chips. :(

Or finally changed the cooking oil after being ordered to by the council food inspector, because it was ten years old and full of rat droppings?

Potters Hopton, I feel like a stuffed Christmas ham after 3 days of being fed four times a day, don't think I missed a meal apart from supper, made up for it with four courses at lunch and dinner though. The foods not what it was but it's still well above average and cooked to perfection.

According to the news, two chains I often dine at may be closing, Beefeater & Brewers Fayre. :(

Gutted about the beefeater, love 'em. Struggling to think of a similar chain, harvester, weatherspoons, toby aren't my thing

Yeah, we also visit Hungry Horse quite a few times, they are pretty good.
I dont mind Harvester, we went there last weekend, also Miller & Carter, but they are expensive.

I got noodles and chicken both sweet chilli and sweet and sour. Noodles tasted of tomato ketchup. Sweet and sour was overly sweet. Sweet chilli was nice. Near £11 for a large mix and match tub. I won't be going back. I thought of street food which is why I went in. Nandos was close by. I was kicking myself :cry:

Gong to Castlewood on Sunday, a Brewers Fayre.

Catchup is what you do with friends you haven't seen in a while.

A local shop was converted into a Tapas bar earlier this year by a chef who had a dream of making authentic Spanish and Mexican dishes. So far we’ve been there nine times, and the food has always been fantastic.

You can keep your fast food franchises and pub chains and their pre-prepared microwaved mush. Nothing better than freshly prepared, well cooked, and well seasoned food.

Troy Kebab House in Crawley. Doner kebab with extra salad. Salad paired with junk is palatable yum.

I'd love to find places that do lamb doner made with meat not the elephant's foot thing, how it was originally intended to be done. Souvla is the word in Greek as opposed to souvlaki which is small pieces of meat. And to be offered pork in addition to lamb and chicken, but this would be more Greek and most kebab shops are "Turkish".
